    Is there anything unique left in windows phone ?

    the only true uniqueness i see is the massive catalog of half baked apps due to no official support from most key app publishers. #sorrynotsorry

    How do I remove the old Windows 8.x Store from Windows 10?

    Removing the old Windows 8.x Store from Windows 10 I seem to have a dangling Windows 8.x store icon half-deleted on my system.. anyone else see this? The Tile shows as: winstore_1.0.0.0_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy I figure this is the old store, now replaced by Windows 10's Store App...

    Internet Sharing always on?

    I have the EXACT same issue. this seems to be a HORRIBLE bug... other devices can see my phone broadcasting an SSID I cannot ever turn off. I'm not amused.

    Issues with MMS on Verizon HTC 8x

    this is what i'd hate to do to "resolve" the issue.. but it seems may be the problem. i just dont want to delete this and STILL have issues. pointless dataloss then. Wish there was an official response from Microsoft regarding this bug/issue/defect.

    MMS Fail on AT&T requires Access Point Config...

    Thanks for the replies on this thread - on my original post I mentioned just that - they swapped a new SIM card & new warranty exchange phone. A week later I used that new SIM card on the brand new Lumia 1020 and still have issues. Factory reset without any "carrier type mods" - so basically now...

    MMS Fail on AT&T requires Access Point Config...

    I want to add that I am still having trouble with MMS on a brand new AT&T Lumia 1020. I have reset the phone to factory settings and SKIPPED the "Access Point" download such that I don't have the option under settings. I can verify that switching APN's must be done automatically now since I...

    MMS Fail on AT&T requires Access Point Config...

    Tested again today: Received MMS from 2 out of 5 people who I requested. Sent regular SMS to confirm they sent me MMS - shows sent on their phones, so what they sent just got lost in the ether - never to reach my phone.. this was while having LTE 2 setting active. Unreliable and slow too, when...

I've done research on the "Access Point" app and it seems that it really messes with these phones. I can't uninstall short of a reset and force cancel downloading...

    I'm on the same boat - LTE 2 seems to be the better APN but contacting support leads nowhere because they don't understand that there's an Access Point app integrated to settings - and when they understand you they have nothing to say about a fix or issue. When people say "switching between 1...

    MMS Fail on AT&T requires Access Point Config...

    I cannot say I ever had a lot of success with MMS on the Windows Phone platform but suddenly one day I kept getting "Can't send" error messages on every picture I sent no matter who the contact was. I tried everything from: 1) airplane mode on/off 2) data connection on/off 3) hard reset and soft...
